Unemployment figure

by Dean Jones » Sun Dec 18, 2011 6:29 am
Dear Friends,

I was having problems in answering the following question.

According to some economists, the July decrease in unemployment so that it was the lowest in two years suggests that the gradual improvement in the job market is continuing.
(A) so that it was the lowest in two years
(B) so that it was the lowest two-year rate
(C) to what would be the lowest in two years
(D) to a two-year low level
(E) to the lowest level in two years


Please help.

OA after some discussions.

My choice was option D

Regards
Deano.
